French

In high school, French is only required in Grade 9, and many students opt not to pursue the language in the following years. Even if students choose to make Grade 9 their final educational experience with French, they can still find themselves struggling to complete assignments and understand the material. High school is when essays start in force after all, and students can feel overwhelmed from wrapping their head, tongue, and writing around the language.

At IVY ED, our French tutors can help with comprehension, work reviews, conversation development, pronunciation, enunciation, and can offer assistance with assignments and essays for French students. This can help build confidence and comfort with the material and make their final year go more smoothly. Alternatively, students may discover a real love for the language and opt to continue onwards. If so, IVY ED will gladly support and assist them throughout the higher levels of high school French education.

French tutoring is especially useful for any student who has their eye on future employment opportunities, particularly since high school is when such prospects start getting serious consideration. Any job that involves public interaction can benefit from the ability to understand and be understood in more than one language, but the true benefit comes when seeking work with the government. Being able to speak French provides a significant leg up in any effort to seek employment with provincial or federal agencies, from student work-placements to internships and more.

IVY ED tutoring is done on a one-on-one basis with an Ontario-certified French teacher. This direct interaction allows students to be given the individualized attention they need so that their unique approaches to learning can be understood and accommodated. School classrooms lean towards one-size-fits-all solutions out of necessity, but tutoring allows for students to have their needs directly addressed in order to help them unleash their full potential.

IVY ED’s French tutors are available for French immersion students as well. Since these children use French for all their primary subjects, our educators can help tutor on a number of topics through French communication.

Testimonials

3rd grade was very challenging for our daughter. She is a smart girl but did not like going to school because she was not doing well. A friend recommended IVY ED. They did an assessment and found the gaps in her education that were keeping her from getting good grades. After tutoring at IVY ED, her grades improved and most importantly her self-esteem improved. She now loves going to school. We are so glad we came to IVY ED.

IVY ED is an amazing learning center. My daughter has improved very much and my son cannot wait to come here! I would not change a thing about your program. Teachers are amazing.
IVY ED is #1.

When Luca came to IVY ED he was very behind and his confidence with school was at an all time low. Since coming to IVY ED, Luca has improved dramatically. He was typically a C or D student and is now an A and B student. The best part is watching his self-confidence grow as he continues to do well. He has learned what it feels like to be successful in school. A huge thanks to your staff.

I am very pleased with my experience at IVY ED Learning Centres. Naz and his staff really care about my son and his ability to develop as a solid performer in math and reading. After using several tutors, I turned to IVY ED in desperation. They immediately tested my son and developed a personalized program for him in the areas that he was struggling. He has since drastically improved his reading skills and continues to excel in math.
